Tips on How to Wash Lingerie

Lingerie needs special care, whether they are basic everyday cotton bras or
special occasion high-end lace tops. The reason for this is simple: lingerie is not
built to last a lifetime, even if some of do last for many decades. Lingerie is
generally fragile, even if it is made with supporting components such as pads,
wires, zippers and garters. With good care, it is possible to make intimate pieces
last longer, help them retain their shape and keep them looking good for many
years. Here are tips on how to wash lingerie the right way:
Following instructions
If lingerie comes with a care instruction, follow it. Some pieces are meant to be
handwashed and should never spend time in a washing machine. Some pieces,
such as cheaper everyday wireless bras, may also be tumbled dry, although
most lingerie pieces are best air dried to avoid stretching. If, for any reason you
are thinking of washing lingerie in hot water, keep in mind that elastic
components and certain fabrics tend to expand and deteriorate in high
temperatures, so use hot water only when absolutely necessary.
Bras
Bras are best cleaned by handwashing. That way, they are subjected to gentle handling. As an alternative, they can be
thrown into the washing machine but they should be put into a mesh bag first to prevent stretching and tangling. Run
the washing machine on delicate or gentle cycle and use a gentle laundry powder or liquid detergent. Use cold or cool
water for washing and rinsing.
Bras with built-in pads should be washed and rinsed thoroughly. Pads, which are usually made of cotton, tend to absorb
sweat and body oils. Underwire bras, on the other hand, require more delicate handling. The wire that provides the
support underneath the cup can become bent or twisted during the wash, thus damaging the shape and affecting the fit.

Handwash underwire bras or put them in a mesh bag and wash using a gentle cycle. Rinse and air dry.
Note: Always connect the eyelets and the hooks prior to washing to prevent the bras from tangling. Try pre-soaking the
bras in water and detergent for about 15-20 minutes before washing. This will help break down the oils and dirt in the
fabric and make the pieces easier to clean.
Briefs and panties
Soiled or stained panties should be soaked for at least 15 to 30 minutes prior to washing. Treat heavy stains with
concentrated laundry solutions and soak in cold water. If you prefer, try an organic approach for removing stains.
Vinegar, salt or hydrogen peroxide, for example, can be used safely on delicate fabrics and usually will not react with
detergent. After soaking, either handwash the panties or put them in a mesh bag and throw them into the washing
machine. Always use a gentle cycle during washing.
Tips for drying lingerie:
Do not wring
After rinsing, squeeze out as much excess water as you can from the cloth but do not wring. Wringing will stretch the
fabric and destroy its shape.
Avoid sunlight
Sunlight is an excellent germ buster but it also causes color to fade fast. Try to hang lingerie away from the sun or use
a color-protecting detergent to keep the color bright for a long time.
